Abstract
Methods and systems may use a software-defined network (SDN) based approach for interworking different types of nodes. In an example, an SDN controller may include components that assist in building pseudowires across Ethernet virtual private network (EVPN) nodes and Border gateway protocol-virtual private local area network (LAN) service (BGP-VPLS) nodes.
